There is no doubt that any visitor to the gambling institution hopes for a quick win. Naturally, there is a small share of those who come to the casino exclusively from “love of art”, but they are happy with any, even little luck. Accordingly, the question arises: what should be the mood of the player who decided to spend free time in the club? Is increased optimism that is inherent in almost 99% of gamers that make the first bet in the game session?
Is the glass half full or half empty?
To begin with, it makes sense to talk about the so -called "biased optimism." This term is usually used in the description of people for whom even serious negative events are less significant than small positive points. Unfortunately, this is inherent in almost any avid player. So that it is clear what is about, we give a simple example: almost every Ludoman remembers for a very long time about large winnings, constantly tells friends about them, and the thought of them all the time warms the soul. But serious losses are forgotten very quickly, almost a couple of days after what happened. This is precisely called "biased optimism."
Very often, gamers take the desired for the real one. They perceive their dreams as reality, not noticing that this causes tremendous harm. Such a model of behavior leads to the rapid development of strong game addiction, large losses and complications of relations with others. A reasonable person perfectly represents how the uncontrolled stay in the casino will end. The gamer, subject to “biased optimism”, will find extremely positive reasons to stay on the playground for as long as possible.
The optimist, even with a large series of failures, will find a positive moment in this, arguing that, according to probability theory, he will begin to win from minute to minute. In his opinion, the conditioned roulette ball cannot fall on black all the time, and for the sixth time it will certainly be red. An additional argument will be the idea that he had not lost yesterday’s gain or something else like. The result of this behavior will be a hundred percent plums of the entire deposit, do not even doubt. Based on this, we should conclude: it is necessary to strictly limit the scope of the game session. The model can be different. For example, you should leave the casino when winning or losing a certain amount. You can also decide on the length of stay in the casino. In any case, as soon as the “hour x” comes, you should leave the playground.
Optimism control
From the above, it is necessary to draw simple conclusions:
- You should forget about excessive optimism.
- No need to try to project the moments of large winnings that were once, for today's situation in the hope of obtaining a large food.
- Do not assure yourself that keeping the situation under control, but just try to really do it.
- It would be nice to remember that luck in the casino depends exclusively on the case, and not on the duration of your stay in the institution.
- Adhere to the strict framework of behavior on the gambling resource and under no circumstances do not violate them.
Unfortunately, it is difficult for a person to admit that he has become a Ludoman. It seems to many players that they have no serious dependence on the game and can “jump off” at any time. This can also be attributed to excessive optimism, so you need to treat yourself more critically. Even if you have not yet become an avid player, but just from time to time you visit a casino, this does not mean that it will always be so. Game addiction is an insidious diagnosis that almost all gamers are subject to. Be careful!
And the last. Good mood and healthy optimism is very good. The gloomy mood of the spirit certainly does not contribute to the fact that during the game you will behave adequately. However, “biased optimism” during the game session is definitely not appropriate. He will only harm the harm, do not even hesitate. Remembering a glass that can be half empty or half full should always be. There should be balance and harmony in everything. Good luck!
